Those who say there is something special about black and white photography that allows people to look beyond the colours and strip the image down to its basics will be able to prove their point with a new exhibition coming to Reading next week.
Some people believe that black and white photography can help to build a stronger emotional connection between the subject and the viewer, evoking more passion and drama than a colour photograph can.
And in this way, monochrome photography can be a powerful representation of the artistic spirit.
The photographers featured in the exhibition organised by The Photographic Angle have utilised the many benefits offered by monochrome photography to produce a strong, creative, and touching set of images.
The exhibition runs from Tuesday, May 9, to Saturday, May 13, and is open daily from 10am to 3pm. Admission is free, and no booking is necessary, and it will be held at R Plus, 2 Blagrave Street.
